    A Message from our Board Advocacy Committee: "As Chamber Board Members, and as local business owners, we are committed to ensuring that our business community has a voice and a qualified resource to stay informed. Having a network to lean on and knowing that there are people in our community who have your back - we believe plays a huge part in making our Villages a place where people love to do business."


  • Top 10 Business Concerns

    Every year, the Oak Park River Forest Chamber of Commerce issues a list of their Top 10 concerns that are facing our local businesses in the coming year. As part of our mission to “cultivate an energized, connected and resilient community,” we see this Top 10 list as a critical way for both Oak Park and River Forest to better understand the challenges faced by our business owners.
